Position: Staff DevOps Engineer, Federal/National Security
Role overview

Create the secure software-delivery and deployment foundation for federal customer environments, starting with a largely blank slate. You’ll own practical systems for building, promoting, deploying, monitoring, and troubleshooting software across unclassified, controlled, and classified settings. The role combines hands‑on platform work with coordination across engineering, security, compliance, and customer teams, including deployments where access to logs or systems is restricted.

Responsibilities
  • Design and implement CI/CD pipelines and secure software-promotion paths across different security environments.
  • Build repeatable deployment, release, rollback, monitoring, and troubleshooting processes.
  • Deploy and operate software in government or customer-controlled environments, including diagnosing issues with limited access to logs or data.
  • Partner with software and platform teams to isolate problems and deliver corrected artifacts safely.
  • Establish practices for infrastructure as code, configuration and secrets management, and artifact handling.
  • Support authorization-related technical work, document operating procedures, and evaluate tools for security, reliability, and portability.
Requirements
  • Active U.S. government Secret clearance or higher; an active Top Secret clearance is preferred.
  • Professional experience in Dev Ops, platform or infrastructure engineering, SRE, release engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience building or substantially redesigning CI/CD and deployment systems, including deployments to restricted, regulated, disconnected, or air-gapped environments.
  • Strong understanding of artifact promotion, environment isolation, access control, and operational troubleshooting.
  • Experience with a CI/CD system, container and orchestration technologies, infrastructure automation, and scripting in Python, Bash, Go, or similar languages.
  • Sound judgment when requirements are incomplete, clear communication across technical and customer groups, and interest in building systems from the ground up.
Nice to have

Experience with IL4, IL5, IL6, classified, or cross-domain deployments; authorization or continuous authorization work; and federal frameworks such as NIST, RMF, FedRAMP, CMMC, or STIGs.

Benefits and work setup

This is a high-ownership role shaping an early-stage federal deployment platform. The listed salary range is $170,000–$240,000, plus bonus and equity. Benefits may vary and include employer-paid medical, dental, and vision coverage, 14 weeks of paid parental leave, manager-approved unlimited paid time off, professional development, and optional retirement and flexible-spending programs.
